成立于2001年的“北京酷儿电影节”（Love Queer Film Week）宣布取消原定周五开幕的活动 1。该电影节由北京大学学生创立，是中国大陆唯一提供LGBTQ+议题公共论坛的电影节 1。组织者通过社交媒体声明指出，取消原因是当局发起的持续骚扰行动，其中包括警方近期增加的重复电话施压 1。这一事件被视为中国政府加强对LGBTQ+群体及独立电影人管控的最新例证，引发了国际人权组织和学者的关注与批评 1。
尽管面临压力，该电影节去年收到了200份志愿者申请，数量是2024年的四倍，显示出其持续的受欢迎程度 1。对此，Human Rights Watch的研究员Maya Wang指出，政府正收紧社会和意识形态控制，对民间社会和LGBT社区施加更大压力 1。圣安德鲁斯大学的Hongwei Bao则称该活动为“LGBT韧性的灯塔”，认为其关闭将对中国的酷儿群体产生寒蝉效应 1。
Beijing’s longest-running independent queer film festival, Love Queer Film Week, has been cancelled following sustained harassment by authorities. 1 The event, originally scheduled to open on Friday, was forced to suspend operations due to recent increased pressure from police, including repeated telephone calls. 1
Founded in 2001 by students at Peking University, the festival served as the only public forum for LGBTQ+ issues in mainland China. 1 Despite these pressures, the festival maintained significant interest; last year it received 200 volunteer applications, a figure four times higher than that recorded in 2024. 1
Maya Wang of Human Rights Watch stated that the government is tightening social and ideological controls, placing greater pressure on civil society and the LGBTQ+ community. 1 Hongwei Bao from the University of St Andrews described the festival as a "beacon of LGBT resilience" and noted that its closure creates a chilling effect for queer groups in China. 1
